What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

A Vagrant plugin that automatically adds and removes hostname entries in the host system's /etc/hosts file when Vagrant machines are started, resumed, halted, or destroyed. It is explicitly unmaintained as of 2021, with the maintainer recommending alternatives or forks.

Use cases

  • manage /etc/hosts entries for vagrant machines
  • access local dev VM via custom hostname
  • automatically clean up hosts file on vagrant halt
  • add host aliases for private network VMs
  • avoid editing hosts file manually for local development

When to choose

  • you still use Vagrant and need simple hosts file management
  • you want a minimal, well-understood plugin you can fork

When to avoid

  • you need maintained software with active support
  • you no longer use Vagrant for development
  • you need support for modern Vagrant versions or new OS releases
